The Focus is on Students

Week 6 … time continues to rush by, time full of many opportunities for our children and time full of many achievements by our students.

This week NAPLAN results were released and we look at these results as a great op-portunity to assess where students are at in their learning and what we need to do to take them to the next stage in their learning. It is of course only one of many tools that we use to do this; through the use of many forms of assessment we create a much more complete picture of our students, how they learn and how we can help them continue on their educational journey.

We have also commenced our Kindergarten Orientation program and as such it seems a great time to revisit our school Vision Statement…just what is it that we are offering children who start their school journey at Ardlethan Central School? What does our school community stand for and why should parents entrust their children to us?

Ardlethan Central School is a supportive, productive and dynamic environ-ment where all students strive to reach their potential. We embrace the small school environment that allows us to ensure every individual is engaged with purposeful and meaningful learning to grow and develop into engaged, inde-

pendent and reflective learners. Ultimately our students are motivated to reach their full potential becoming positive responsible and respectful citi-

zens in an ever changing world.

If we can offer this to every student, what a fabulous place to be learning. Make no mistake we strive to achieve this every single day. If you imagine it, you can achieve it. If you can dream it, you can become it.

NSW CHS Lawn Bowls Carnival On the 3rd August Jaidyn Hopkins-Jones and Loclan Nau travelled to Armidale for the 2015 NSW CHS Lawn Bowls Carnival. There were ten teams from across NSW contesting for the State title. Jaidyn and Loclan were representing the Riverina at this three-day carnival.

On the first day of the carnival the Riverina team played two games, the first was against South West and the second against Western. Unfortunately, the Riverina team went down to South West by seven shots (25-18) in the opening game and to Western 47-10.

The Riverina team played three games on the second day; the first was against Sydney North, the second against South Coast and the third was against Sydney East. The opposing teams were successful winning all three games. Sydney North-31 defeated Riverina-10, South Coast-26 defeated Riverina-17 and Sydney East-28 defeated Riverina-20.

On the final day of the carnival the Riverina team played Sydney East for the second time for 9th/10th placing. The play off was a closer result than the preliminary round, with the Sydney East team defeating Riverina 21-17. Congratulations to Jaidyn and Loclan for displaying wonderful skill and sportsmanship throughout this car-nival, we look forward to following your achievements in the near future. Thank you to Sue Hopkins-Jones for transporting and supporting the boys at this event. Caroline Stewart

Netball Elimination Finals

Under 11’s Under 11’s played a very confident GGGM on Saturday in the elimination finals at Griffith. Only one goal was scored in the first quarter proving just how tough this game was going to be. Isabel Gaynor captained the team from the centre with great spirit and stamina, never game up. Bella Fairman had a fantastic game in WA, supporting the goal shooters Paige Brown and Louise O’Hare who played well against a strong defence. Emma Morris played a confident game in WD and supported an unwell Brooke Denyer in GK. Annabelle Cassidy leas the defence in GS and managed to stay strong as pressure mounted in the GGGM goal circle. The girls were able to hang on and finish with a three point win 14-11. Thank you to Hayley Writer and Madison Cassidy for supporting the team from the sidelines. We play Narrandera next Saturday at Narrandera in the preliminary finals.

Under 13’s The under 13’s won 30-27, and have qualified for the preliminary final. All the girls played a fantastic game. Lily Walker had a fantastic game in GA, putting in what I think was goal of the year. Olivia Harper had a great game in centre gaining many valuable intercepts and Josie Gaynor and Erin Brown were great on the wings. Next week we take on GGGM at Narrandera. Lets go Jets!!

Under 15’s The under 15's Jets Netballers travelled to Griffith to play in the elimination final against Coleambally on Saturday. Some of the team were recovering from illness during the week, but were still on deck to play. After a slow start the jets were able to race away with a very handy lead at the third quarter. Coleambally tried to claw back in the last quarter but the Jets were able to come away with the points. The final score 43 to 27. All team members played well and should be very proud of the way they played.
